Are you calm, collected and happy to chat on the phone? Join the volunteer team at our brand new Brislington furniture store! With support from the shop team, you will be the first point of contact for customers, helping them with any phone and online enquiries, arranging collections of donations via our local van teams and explaining our Gift Aid scheme.
